My previous entry in this category will show the casual reader that I am a devoted fan of Adam Ant.
However, I have to say this album is a misnomer. I have very little good to say about it; I removed it from my mp3 player pretty quickly, and realised that I had barely played it since buying it in 1995. If I'm feeling charitable, I would say that artists bring out dreadful 'Comeback' albums because they are so caught up and too close to the material, and no one has the common sense or guts to say "Woah! This is really bad, it's so bad it risks jeopardising your reputation and integrity that you strived so hard to establish." If I was less charitable, I would say it was a deliberate ploy by the record company, with or without the artist's connivance to take advantage of the gullibility loyalty of long term fans. It leaves a bad sound in the ear and a bad taste in the mouth.
Enough said
